From the reviews: __'This book provides valuable insights into the way archaeologists attempt to unravel human history and the daunting problems they face'.__ William Ruddiman, **EOS** Vol. 89 No. 18, April 2008. __'The book delves intensively and extensively into the methodologies for analyzing faunal change using the mammalian fossil record, paleoecology. The 12 papers contributed by more than 30 authors focus on carnivores, bovids, nonhuman primates, and small mammals, and provide suggestions for future research. ... The large amount of data has yielded a significant integration of information and shows how different lines of study can strengthen the understanding of complex evolutionary problems. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students through professionals.'__ D. Bardack, **CHOICE**, Vol. 45 No. 10, June, 2008. __'The new book by Bobé et al. is much more circumscribed in its aspirations and coverage. ... In addition, most authors are to be congratulated for appropriate taphonomic sensitivity in their approaches to the fossil record. ... is useful to the interested nonspecialist, and they benefit from the uniformly clear style of presentation throughout.'__ Travis Rayne Pick
